Touch A Truck Day




This past Saturday Emily and I took the boys to the annual Touch A Truck day! Let me say, it was cold and cloudy and soon after we arrived it started raining but we hung in there as long as we could but after an hour we bailed. Ben and Cole had a lot of fun while we were there though which is all that matters. Talk about Cole heaven! There were work trucks, tractors, fire trucks, garbage trucks, motorcycles...you name it and it was there. The best part of the event is that the kids get to climb in the trucks, around the trucks...all over and get a feel for what they are like up close. As soon as we walked in Cole ran to the cement truck. He had been talking about that all morning so I was thrilled that there was one there! He sat in the driver's seat saying "I build a road mama!" I think he really thought he was working! The boys received lots and lots of candy, stickers, and treats (in fact when we left Cole said his favorite truck was the ice cream truck - imagine that!). Cole was so excited for Rhonald to get home from work so he could tell him all about the truck show and everything he saw! We had so much fun but Emily and I agreed that next year will be better because we will make sure the daddies are off of work - lifting 2 toddlers into those big trucks is tough!

I meant to email you to make sure you knew about Touch A Truck. I knew it would be right up Cole's alley!

This was our first year to not go in a while. I hate that Drew was sick and we had to miss it. :(
